Preparing for production’s return

With the SAG-AFTRA strike ending, Central Casting is excited to cast our Background Actors in our movies and TV shows. We are busy preparing for filming to ramp up. As our shows return to production, we will reach out with availability inquiries and post to our Jobs page. Until then, we recommend updating your profile and photos with your current look and sizes so our Casting Directors have your accurate information when considering you for work. We can’t wait to get you back on set!

Central Casting Georgia not affiliated with Central Casting Photography

It has come to our attention that there is an advertisement for work from a company that goes by the name of “Central Casting Photography” in Georgia. Please be advised that we are “Central Casting Georgia,” and we are not affiliated with Central Casting Photography in any way.

Make a reservation for photo updates

Want to update your main profile photo or transfer from a different Central Casting office to Central Casting Georgia? Make a reservation for in-person photo updates and office transfers. Make a Photo Updates reservation.

Update sizes in your online profile

Has it been a while since you updated your sizes? Have you not yet populated sizes in your online profile? Casting Directors often use these measurements when booking their shows. If you don’t have your sizes or have inaccurate measurements in your profile, you may be missing out on job opportunities. Learn more.

Central Casting’s new text message number – it’s shorter and always the same!

Text messages from Central Casting will be sent from a new number. It’s shorter – only 5 digits, and it’s always the same 5-digit number. You can be assured that all messages you receive from this number are from us here at Central Casting. We know some of our Background Actors had some difficulty receiving text messages, this new number will help ensure all messages are delivered.

To respond to availability inquiries, you still must click the provided link or log in to your online profile. And of course if you’re going to be late or need to cancel, you must call your Central Casting office. This new text number does not accept replies.

Direct Deposit for Background Actors

Central Casting is excited to announce a direct deposit payment option for Background Actors! If you’d like to be paid by direct deposit instead of paper checks, you can sign up through myEP once then will receive all payment via direct deposit for productions where Central Casting provides casting services and Entertainment Partners handles payroll. Learn More.

Tech support chat

Our tech support chat is now available between 6am-6pm PT for technical help with your online profile, email updates, required training questions (Los Angeles and New York only), and more. Note: technical support and casting are separate. If you need to cancel, are going to be late, have questions about your booking, or other casting related inquiries, you must contact your Central Casting office.
